Risk factors for suicide in children and young people in England With some concerning increases in rates of suicide among younger age groups over recent years, we have carried out research to build a picture of the groups of young people at higher risk. We found suicide risk was higher in males than females, and higher for children living in households where the householder or homeowner held formal qualifications compared with those in households where they did not. Separate analysis also found higher risks among some young people with special educational needs (SEN) compared with those with no recorded SEN. The article includes insights from individuals with professional or personal experience of suicide prevention or supporting young people. |
